Build Your Own Path
Three years ago, my family and I wanted to make a path around our land — something raked free of cholla and other cacti — where we could roam free in sandals without worry of stepping on something we didn’t really want to step on. We spent several hours every evening for a couple of months raking, gathering rocks from our land, and placing rocks. The end result is a lovely 1/3 mile rock lined path. We were lamenting recently that we wished for little offshoots of this path on at least two se

NKorea Fires Missiles Launch Toward US Feared
SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea fired a barrage of short-range missiles off its east coast in a possible prelude to the launch of a long-range missile toward Hawaii over the U.S. Independence Day holiday. Firing a ballistic missile on the July Fourth celebration would be a challenge to Washington, which has been rallying international support for enforcement of U.N. sanctions imposed against Pyongyang following a May 25 nuclear test. North Korea is banned from testing ballistic missiles under U

Octopus USB Hub is cute and practical
With the abundance of gadgets people have these days, it’s no wonder you have more items than USB ports. That’s why the USB hub was invented. And if you’re going to get a USB hub, why not get one that’s in the shape of an octopus . The Octopus USB Hub features four separate USB ports, one on the end of each of the hub’s “tentacles.” Really, this is pretty practical, and you don’t have to worry about your gizmos being cluttered all together on your desk. The arms look to be pretty lo

Wherein I Make A Controversial Statement
I hate jeans. Hate 'em. I know that every other person on the planet will disagree with me and I'm down with that. You go on wearing your jeans however you like - I don't hate your jeans. I hate mine! I wore jeans today for the first time in a couple of months and all I could think of all day was how long it would be until I could get home and take those suckers off. I feel like I'm being squeezed in a vise. The best pair of jeans will never fit me as well as a lousy pair of pants. And i
